Fruit Tart Fruit Tart
I wanted to eat a fruit-filled tart on a hot summer's day, so I made this.Mixing a little custard to the filling is unbelievably delicious.Use your favorite fruits; the pastry glaze will dry and coat them beautifully, and I recommend it. Bananas and apples brown easily so sprinkle a little lemon juice before topping on the cake. Recipe by nyonta

Lemon tarts Lemon tarts
I love these tarts! They are so easy to make it's easy to keep them on hand. I like them really tart but if they're too tart for you just increase the sugar a bit or substitute some of the lemon juice with water. Enjoy!!

Pineapple Tarts Pineapple Tarts
Chinese New Year is fast approaching and pineapple tarts are popping out everywhere if you are residing in Singapore. This year, I decided to make my own with a bit of old and new. I had been experimenting on these tarts for a couple of days and old is using a traditional recipe (which is from my grandma). New is going an unorthodox route with a French pastry as the base.I personally dislike the base. I find the cookie base crumbly and lack flavors without much texture. The pineapple jam is also a bit too sweet and doesn't have much of a chew. After much experimenting, I finally settled for a reduced sugar pineapple jam and a very underrated pastry, sablé breton, as the base. I can finally taste the pineapple's tartness as well as an aromatic cookie base.Even tho they look more rustic, but they are just the way I wanted them to be. The downside is the cookie base dough has to be parbaked be4 molding into individual tarts. This means the leftover cookies cannot be reused. You can bake the leftover and consume as it is or blitz them into powder and use it as garnishes for ice cream or any desserts.But I didn't stop here. I still feel that there is a lack of something and so I improvised. I had included the extra steps in the directions below. You can totally skip the extra steps and the tarts will still taste great. On a last note, do taste and adjust the amount of sugar that you are gonna add. Some pineapples are sweeter and some are sour.
